Reconciling these two experiences – growing up around guns and people who use them responsibly – and the knowledge of guns’ potential danger – is something many of us attempt to do.

At the beginning of this month, a law went into effect allowing permitless carry in Indiana.

If not already, then soon, politicians will use this tragedy to score political points. Online community boards and local Nextdoor sites will pop up with the inevitable fights:

“Good guy with a gun” or “Shooter never should have gotten to purchase a gun.”

“But Chicago has a murder problem.”

“Yes, with guns that have come from Indiana.”

“The 2nd Amendment says…” “Well regulated militia.” And on, and on and on.

And all groups will be right. And all groups will be wrong. And then the next shooting will occur.
